The Impact of Digitalization of Payment Systems on Inflation Stability in Indonesia
This study aims to analyze the impact of payment system digitization on inflation stability in Indonesia during the period 2015 - 2024 using a qualitative approach. The main focus of this research is to examine how digital transformation in the payment system, especially through the use of e-money, QRIS, debit cards, and credit cards can contribute to changes in transaction patterns in society and its implications for the inflation rate. Digital transformation in the national payment system, such as the increasing use of QRIS, e-money, and other non-cash payment methods has changed people's transaction behavior and strengthened the effectiveness of inflation control policies. Digitalization accelerates transaction efficiency, lowers the amount of distribution costs, and expands financial inclusion. It also collectively contributes to price stability. However, there are challenges such as digital infrastructure gaps and financial literacy that still need to be improved, so that the benefits of digitalization can be used by many people as users. The results of this study confirm that the digitization of payment systems is a strategic instrument in maintaining Indonesia's macroeconomic stability, as long as there is synergistic policy support and continuous education.
Multiple Correlation Analysis of the Number of E-Commerce Entrepreneurs, Digital Literacy, and GDP per Capita on E-Commerce Transaction Value in Indonesia in 2020–2023
This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the number of e-commerce entrepreneurs, digital literacy level, and GDP per capita on the e-commerce transaction value in Indonesia from 2020 to 2023. The approach used in this research is multiple correlation analysis, using secondary data obtained from BPS, the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology, and the Indonesian E-Commerce Association (idEA). The findings of this study indicate that all three independent variables have a very strong relationship with the e-commerce transaction value, evidenced by an R² value of 1.000 which shows that 100% of the variance in transaction value can be explained by the combination of these three variables. In separate analysis, GDP per capita has the most significant impact (97.5%), followed by digital literacy (93.1%), and the number of e-commerce entrepreneurs (80.9%). This result indicates that the development of the digital economy in Indonesia is greatly influenced by the purchasing power of the community, understanding of digital technology, and the presence of online business actors.
Economic Growth and Income Inequality in Indonesia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Two Decades of Research
The relationship between economic growth and income inequality is a central policy challenge in Indonesia. This article presents a systematic review and qualitative meta-analysis of 21 empirical studies (2007-2025) examining this nexus at national and sub-national levels. The analysis reveals a lack of consensus on the direction of causality, with different studies supporting conflicting or insignificant relationships. Similarly, the validity of the Kuznets Curve hypothesis is found to be context-dependent, holding true in some provinces but not others. The review also identifies crucial mediating factors, including financial inclusion, education, and governance, which significantly influence the growth-inequality dynamic. Overall, the findings underscore the complexity of this relationship, calling for a policy shift away from a purely growth-centric paradigm towards more inclusive and regionally-tailored development strategies to ensure equitable outcomes.

Results reveal a significant surge in publications (peaking at 50 articles in 2023), with three dominant clusters: (1) synergy between HR and organizational strategy, (2) digital marketing as a catalyst for business transformation, and (3) technological infrastructure as an enabler. Universitas Pamulang and marketing-focused journals emerged as top contributors. The study concludes that digital transformation, HR, and marketing are intrinsically interconnected in accelerating Indonesia’s economic growth, necessitating holistic policy integration for optimal impact.

The Role of MSMEs In Reducing Unemployment Rate: Case Study in Langkat District
This study aims to analyze the role of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in reducing the unemployment rate in Langkat Regency. MSMEs have long been considered a sector that is able to absorb a large number of workers, especially in areas with minimal large-scale industrial investment. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method of 100 MSME actors in 10 sub-districts. The variables studied include the number of MSMEs, government support, access to capital, and unemployment rates. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, validity tests, reliability tests, and classical assumption tests. The results of the study indicate that the number of MSMEs has a significant and negative effect on the unemployment rate, meaning that an increase in the number of MSMEs can reduce unemployment in Langkat Regency. Meanwhile, the variables of government support and access to capital do not have a significant effect. These findings indicate the need for strengthening more targeted policies in supporting MSMEs, either through financing, training, or regulations that facilitate the growth of small businesses. Thus, MSMEs have proven to have great potential as a strategic solution in overcoming unemployment at the local level.

MSME Company Performance Model: The Role of Financial Resources and Entrepreneurial Orientation
In an increasingly competitive business world, the performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is an important indicator of a country's economic sector. This study explores the performance model of SMEs by assessing the crucial role of financial resources and entrepreneurial orientation in influencing two key dimensions of performance: profitability and sales growth. The results show that both financial resources and entrepreneurial orientation have significant and positive impacts on SME profitability and sales growth. This finding underscores the importance of adequate access to capital and innovative entrepreneurial orientation in improving business performance. Interestingly, the interaction between financial resources and entrepreneurial orientation shows a positive effect, but is not statistically significant, indicating that the combined impact of these two factors can be influenced by the specific context of SMEs. This study offers new insights for practitioners and policymakers in designing strategies and policies that support SMEs. By understanding how capital and entrepreneurial orientation contribute to business performance, it is hoped that more effective approaches can be developed to facilitate the growth and sustainability of SMEs in Indonesia.
